Hoover’s Discussion of Whether the Christians and the Muslims Believe in the Same God. Both Christianity and Islam uphold the existence of only one God, and there are structural similarities in their doctrines. However, they significantly disagree over how precisely this God is one with the Muslims criticizing the Christians believe in the theory of Trinity. This paper discusses whether the Christians and the Muslims believe in the same God based on typical Muslim concerns of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. According to Jon Hoover, the Muslims’ criticism of the Trinity is based on Quran assertions that there is only one God and tawhid (monotheism) is primarily an Islam doctrine. They believe that Trinity is a threat to this concept and subjects God to tri-theism. That it is an unforgivable sin to associate God with other beings, and Christians wrongly give worship to Jesus Christ worship that is only due to God. The Muslims reject the triad apparently because it associates God to have a son, and this is an expression of unbelief and associationism. Christian’s response to this…

The development and spread of Christianity If we can trace back from the growth and spread of Christianity, the efficiency of the Roman Empire has played a significant role. In the past, the core principles of Christianity was misunderstood, and those who supported Christianity were seen as a threat not only to society but also to other religions in the Roman Empire. It is believed that despite Jesus having died, the message was not dead. The reason why the news was not dead is that the discipline Jesus had while he was preaching the Gospel, took on the mantel and did spread the same message to the Jewish society, which was made easier by the Roman Empire and the energetic disciples. Disciples such as Paul were fully committed to the spread of the Gospel. The disciples took the initiative and transverse across various cities to preach the Gospel such as Ephesus, the Athens and Philippi to mention but a few, who were their target audience because of the social and economic status. Paul took the message to the people’s doorstep…

Good Country People story review The story Good Country People by Flannery O’Connor is a typical representation of Christianity and the South American people. O’Connor’s story touches on the role of intellectualism and physical challenges in shaping individual identity. The story is centered in Mrs. Hopewell’s daughter, Joy/Hugla, who is emotionally scattered due to hunting escapade that went wrong, rendering her crippled. The physical impairment caused her to retreat from the physical world and into the world of intellect. She was given her original name as joy by her mother, Mrs. Hopewell, an optimistic woman who confronts adversity by her simple philosophy of hoping for the best. The optimistic nature of her mother irritates Joy, who retaliates by changing her name, legally, to the ugliest name she will think of, Hugla.

The choice of her name, Hugla, mirrored the deliberate ugliness in her personality. Joy is intentionally rude to her mother because of her philosophy…

The wakening by Kate Chopin is seminal feminist writing commenting on the struggles of women in a male-dominated society.
